Here are my little pea pods, dyed, wrapped, boiled, and now waiting to dry before I unwrap them. The centers are the green and the outer edges are purple. Rather than folding it in any of the ways demonstrated on the Fire blog I simply pinched the fabric in the middle and let the fabric drape down and started wrapping.
The blocks are 6 1/2 inches square. I am planning to make 48 to sew together into a baby quilt. I'll be ready for the next family baby.
Here is the big reveal.
I am not all the impressed. I think I will use a third color on the rest and maybe boil them a bit longer.
I'm anxious to see the finished piece.
ReplyDeleteWow! I love them!
ReplyDeleteI thought I saw a dragon fly! :) Its a good start!
ReplyDeleteThe tie may not be tight enough on the soft pod to leave a more distinct pattern but they are looking good!
ReplyDeleteSome gorgeous marks on these.
